Both would be FA’s https://www.spotrac.com/nba/washington-wizards/delon-wright-17848/ Wright is an UFA, Okoro is a RFA. If anything it helps clear some of the books if we don’t want to keep them around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they saying they want a lottery pick for this guy? Yeah makes no sense. I've been wanting DFS but he ain't getting a first rounder for the Nets at this point. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For as much that’s been said about the FO valuing/wanting to upgrade defense and toughness, it never ever made any sense to me that they wanted Austin Reaves in exchange for DJ. Would it be possible to get Grimes (or Okoro) and Wright? We also need a BU 4. Our PLAYOFF rotation would be… Trae | Wright Murray | Bogi Hunter | Grimes Johnson | ??? Capela | Okongwu Edited February 6 by Hawkish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atleast give me another rookie, maybe one needing a change of scenery. Somethin' 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theheroatl Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 (edited) That Suns for Bridges deal can easily be outdone We need defensive wings so if we get Okoro/Grimes or whatever I'm ok with it but we need to use a limited pool of assets... I was hoping we could flip Capela before his value tanks bad Edited February 6 by theheroatl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we're supposed to 'just' care about the on court but ... perhaps the reason guys like that don't do better is because they know most of us 'just care about the on court'? 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post warcore Posted February 6 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 6 all this talk of giving up assets for Delon when we have a rookie that needs burn.... And for those that want to argue a vet would help us more.... we're not a title team regardless. We need to think beyond this season and stop thinking so short-sighted. 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As of today there defense is better. The biggest AJ problem is why he isn't playing here or in the GL. Is it a Quin thing or a personal thing? I don't understand getting Okoro as we'd have two RFAs in him and Bey. With Grimes, he has more games and experience than. I see him similar to the Bey acquisition last year.

Moderators macdaddy Posted February 6 Moderators Report Share Posted February 6 Insiders got any info on AJ? I can't under stand why no reporter or anyone has figured out what's going on there. We can get DJ's texts but can't find out why our best 2nd year player can't get on the court. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
